thought #174- how do you measure a man?

how can you measure how much you're worth to someone? is it by the amount of time they spend with you? the sacrifice and going out of their way to personally lavish and love you? is it by the way they pour themselves out as if your sight makes them want to cut their heart in half and spill lust, love, fear and hope? is it by words, actions, silent adoration?

it's so easy to proclaim and reassure ones self, saying things like sure they love me and of course they'll have my back. but then one ugly moment, hurtful deed, words  suddenly makes you doubt your faith in that so called dedicated person. its so easy to think you know a person that well, you think they value what you once shared or still share, then they press the delete on your existence in their life and forget you. then suddenly you question your worth to that person. sadly, "i thought they loved me" is a common mistake. moral of the story? people will let you down, relationships won't always be as sunshine and lollipops, but honestly if the person you value and prioritise considers you an option, think again. if the person you're contemplating staying with, doesn't see your worth, walk away. assumptions suck. "i thought" always hurts. don't be an idiot and wait for the day when he/she/they say to your face "you don't mean anything to me." there's so much better in store. life awaits.

love,
